Bobs Sporting Goods Back Home - Taken from the American Angler Website

Capt. Brian Kiyohara backed the boat in this morning with the gang from Bobs Sporting Goods. Thanks to Jay for filling in for Mike this trip, and a huge thanks to Mike Naoe without whom these trips would not be possible - he spends the year organizing from the shop and it is a great group of guys. And again thanks to Scott Okamura for the beef sticks - they are soooo good!

The guys had a nice catch of Yellowfin Tuna, Yellowtail and Dorado - all beautiful fresh fish, many of which were being taken home for a backyard fillet party to be consumed and shared by friends and family.
